Andrew Kelly: Project 5: Waffle

Thematic Description
For my waffle assignment I wanted to make something that could be a monument at the right scale, but with movable parts, since all the projects to this point have either been single-piece or a system of just theoretically connected pieces. The idea of a ball-socket joint seems like the simplest abstraction of a system complicated enough to make the misaligned waffles I desire.

References
I was inspired by a number of pictures on reddit.com/r/infrastructureporn (beautiful photos of infrastructure from 'round the world), as well as this piece: (original artist = Johnathan Solter)
specifically the with the pyramid at the bottom and the spherical mass of energy near the top.


Rhino captures
 Something strange was happening with the display, couldn't get my rhino to handle transparency properly, shaded, wireframe, or ghosted, but instead the entire object gets rendered with the faces more parallel to the camera being more visible.
